Großmeister der Spannungsliteratur, ungekrönter König des Politthrillers und internationaler Bestsellerautor - Frederick Forsyth ist ein Mann der Superlative. Dass er auch die kleine literarische Form überzeugend beherrscht, beweist eindrucksvoll sein neues Buch. Ob Forsyth von einem Staranwalt erzählt, der ganz eigene Vorstellungen von Gerechtigkeit hat und vor eigenwilligen Maßnahmen nicht zurückschreckt, oder von höchst unfeinen Gepflogenheiten in der feinen Kunstwelt...

A virtuosic, laugh-out-loud collection of stories that explore the fraught and fantastic nature of human connection—featuring women, men, various couples, and one terribly precocious baby enmeshed in tangled romances of all shapes and sizes

Chickpeas to Cook is the story of the woman of the tribe, women from some of the smallest of communities, often no more than a few hundred families in Singapore. How do these women live, think, breathe? What does the Dawoodi Bohra woman answer, for instance, when she’s asked if her daughter will don the ridah after marriage? When does the Sikh woman decide it’s time to come out of her brother’s shadow and live for herself? What does the Eurasian woman do when her DNA report arrives and it doesn’t quite tally with what her parents told her?

Deeply humane, in turn wry and humorous, the stories in this collection haunt listeners with their searing honesty.

In these twelve new stories, Richard Bausch explores the passions of men and women facing unex­pected circumstances and the complications of modern life and love. In the novella “Donnaiolo,” for instance, the parents of a young divorcée who has returned from Italy and a failed marriage must deal with the completely different, and unappealing, person she has become. In “Isolation,” a happily married woman who has con­ceived an unexpected passion for another man learns, in lockdown during the pandemic, that this man—into whose life Bausch also gives us a window—has become ill with Covid.
